Wicked

Contest: Win Tickets to a Preview Screening of Wicked!

Be the first to see the highly-anticipated musical on the big screen!

The award-winning Broadway smash hit Wicked is finally making its long-awaited journey to movie theatres this holiday season.

Based on Gregory Maguire’s best-selling novel, the film follows the untold story of the witches of Oz. It stars Emmy, Grammy, and Tony-winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, a young woman shunned for her unusual green skin who has yet to discover her real power, and Grammy-winning singer and superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular It Girl surrounded by privilege and ambition who has yet to discover her heart. After meeting at Shiz University, the two form an unlikely but profound friendship. But when a chance encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz turns their worlds upside down, their destinies begin to truly take shape.

The film also stars Oscar® winner Michelle Yeoh as Shiz University’s regal headmistress Madame Morrible; Jonathan Bailey (Bridgerton, Fellow Travelers) as Fiyero, a roguish and carefree prince; Tony nominee Ethan Slater (Broadway’s Spongebob Squarepants, Fosse/Verdon) as Boq, an altruistic Munchkin student; Marissa Bode in her feature-film debut as Nessarose, Elphaba’s favoured sister; and pop culture icon Jeff Goldblum as the legendary Wizard himself. And keep your eyes and ears peeled for Bowen Yang (Saturday Night Live) and Bronwyn James (Harlots), and four-time Emmy winner Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones).

Wicked, the first chapter of a two-part cinematic event, hits theatres on November 22. That Shelf and Universal Pictures are giving our readers the chance to see Part One on the big screen at a preview screening on November 18 in either Toronto, Montreal (EN), Laval (FR) or Vancouver.
